A water drop by maggiemae

A water drop

In the middle of one of the leaves of a lupin, this drop sparkled in the sunshine.

Three good things:
1. NZ won the Louis Vuitton yacht cup and will now take on America in the America's cup!
2. Funny listening to John 'speaking' to his iPad on a voice app. He also tells it that it is a 'complete prick"!
3. Playing Skyfall music on the keyboard- got the sheet music from: www.sheetmusic.ws
how lovely! my mom talks to Siri (her iphone) too... and she isn't very nice to Siri either... i keep telling her she's setting a bad example for the kids ;p

Amazing macro, we talk to our GPS in the car - not always complementry

Fantastic macro. Simple and gorgeous.

@tonydebont I think the GPS is rude - always interrupting conversations!
August 26th, 2013  
Like a jewel! Great macro!

It almost looks like a diamond setting on a fancy ring. Great macro.

Lovely reflections in the drop.
I talk to the GPS as well.....must be a common thing to do. Mine is called Elizabeth, so I can say "thank you Elizabeth" or "I heard you the first time Elizabeth"

@onie_m Like, "Whenever possible, do a U turn"?

It's like a shining emerald -- beautiful capture! I reserve my back talk for my GPS system -- a bloke with a British accent named Simon, he must live on another planet where traffic jams haven't been invented.
August 26th, 2013  
Good grief, I just read the comments and realized we all talk to ourGPS systems. I must say I'm grateful that Simon does his recalculating silently. But I swear if I make too many mistakes he stops talking to me and sulks.

Really beautiful viewed large (aren't they all?) Didn't know about the sailing and congratulations on the keyboard. I had a good laugh about your second item - well worth a Fav!

Funny conversations & stories about GPS systems...they are so foolish sometime, mine is a woman & thinks she is always right!
Love your emerald jewel & NZ is going great guns at the sport.

Lovely emerald drop...I turned off the voice on my GPS...I like to wander sometimes and got tired of hearing it say "you're going the wrong way"!! Potty mouth happens then!! And Siri....I haven't even tried for I fear I would be nasty to her too!!
August 27th, 2013  
Looks like jewels! Beautiful!
August 27th, 2013  
Lovely macro Maggie, my husband often tells his satnav that it's a piece of s**t!;-)
